THIS WEATHER STATION LEARNS FORECAST OVER TIME!
Please allow 3-4 weeks for barometer calibration to generate an accurate forecast.
IMPORTANT: As the Weather Station builds memory, it will compare the current average
pressure to the past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the Weather
Station operates in one location the more accurate the forecast icons will be.
Weather Forecast Icons: This Weather Station has 5 forecast icons that predict the weather
condition of the next 12-hours based on the change of atmospheric pressure.
Sunny
Partly Cloudy
Cloudy
Rainy
Stormy
The icons forecast the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny or
rainy as each icon indicates.
The weather forecast is about 70-75% correct. As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly
forecasted we are not be responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.
